Kumu Kahua Theatre Has A Teachers Hospitality Night

By: Kelsey Denette Jan. 09, 2012

All Middle, High School, College and University teachers--whether working at state, private or charter schools--are invited with a guest to a free hospitality night in the theatre at 46 Merchant Street on Wednesday, January 25 at 6pm.

The program will consist of two parts, an introductory 'trailer' to the two new plays for Spring – Sean O'Malley's Wilcox's Shot (playing March 29 to April 29), and Alani Apio's K?mau A'e (playing May 31 to July 1) – and a complete preview performance of an adaptation of Lois-Ann Yamanaka's Saturday Night at the P?hala Theatre opening the following day. Between these two events, light refreshments will be served and the teachers and theatre folks can hopefully get acquainted.

The presentations will focus on how the plays were conceived and developed by the playwrights, and developed by directors and theatre personnel, and will be led by the two playwrights and directors. We'll also introduce samples of our ED GUIDE for theatre groups – for we expect that teacher interest in the forthcoming productions will generate school groups taking advantage of our generous discount rates of $5 for students Thursday and Friday nights.

For reservations for the hospitality night, please call the Kumu Kahua Box Office at 536 4441, preferably by Friday, January 20, and talk with Box Office Manager, Margaret Welch, who can give further information about January 25 event and the later production dates for the plays.

Kumu Kahua productions are made possible with support from the State Foundation on Culture and the Arts, celebrating more than thirty years of culture and the arts in Hawai‘i, and the National Endowment for the Arts; paid for in part by the taxpayers of the City & County of Honolulu, the Mayor’s Office of Culture and the Arts; The Annenberg Foundation; Island Insurance; and Foundations, Businesses and Patrons.
